I hold a PhD and master’s degree from MIT in hydrometeorology, as well as dual bachelor’s degrees from Cornell University. During my academic career, I conducted original scientific research and published research findings. Today, I work in natural catastrophe modeling, where I use mathematics, statistics, and scientific analysis to understand risks from extreme weather and other natural hazards.

I hold a PhD and master’s degree from MIT in hydrometeorology, as well as dual bachelor’s degrees from Cornell University. During my academic career, I conducted original scientific research and published research findings. Today, I work in natural catastrophe modeling, where I use mathematics, statistics, and scientific analysis to understand risks from extreme weather and other natural hazards. But have skills in communication, presentations, and english as well.
I also have hands-on tutoring experience through Chicago Lights and Tutoring Chicago. I’ve worked one-on-one with students from eighth grade to high school, including students transitioning to high school. In addition, I volunteer as an MIT Educational Counselor in Chicago. Lastly, I enjoy helping students prepare for standardized tests (like the SATs) and academic entrance exams, focusing on effective study strategies, critical thinking, problem-solving, and building confidence to perform at their best.
I believe that good tutoring is about more than finding the right answer. I help students understand why a method works, break complex ideas into manageable steps, and build the confidence to solve problems independently. I adapt my approach to each student’s strengths, questions, and goals.
I offer online tutoring in math, statistics, and science, whether a student needs help with homework, exam preparation, or strengthening foundational skills.
Most importantly, I want students to enjoy learning. I bring patience, encouragement, and a sense of fun to each session while fostering curiosity, critical thinking, and excitement about how the world works.
